             FIVE YEARS  / David Bowie


G                                 
 pushing thru' the market square
Em  
 so many mother sighing
A
 News had just come over
        C                         G Am
 We had five years left ti cry in

G
 News guy wept and told us
Em
 earth eas really dying
A
 Cried so much, his face was wet
C
 Then i knew he was not lying.


 G Am    G
 I heard telephones, opera house, favorite melodies
   Bm  Em
 I saw boys, toys, electric irons and T.V's
    A
 My brain hurt like a ware house, it had no room to spare
           C
 I had to cram so many things to store ev'ry thing in there
                 Am
 And all the fat skinny people
C                       Am
 And all the tall short people
C              G  Am G
 And all the nobody  people
C                G  Am D7
 And all the somebody  people
                                  Am       C    G Am
 I never thought i'd need so many people


G
 A girl my age went off her head
Em
 Hit some tiny children
A
 If the black had not puled her off
C
 I think she would have killed them
G
 A soldier with a broken arm
Em
 Fixed his state to the wheels of a Cadilac
A
 A cop Knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
C
 And a queer threw up at at the sight of that


G                                         F#m
 I think i saw you in an ice cream parlour
Em
 Drinking milkshakes cold and long
A
 smiling and waving and looking so fine
C
 Don't think you knew you were in this song

     G  Am  G
 And it was cold, and it rained, so i felt like an actor
 F#m   Em
 And i thoought of Ma, and i wanted to get back there
      A
 Your face, Your race, the way that you talk
   C                                                G  Am
 I kiss you, you're beautifull, I want you to walk. we got


      G                          Bm
 [[:  five years stuck on my eyes
      Em
      five years what a surprise we got
      A
      five years my brain hurts a lot
      C
      five years that's all we got we've got  :]]
